"Altman wants to become a farmer. "I think there will come a time when AI can be a much better CEO of OpenAI than me, and I will be nothing but enthusiastic the day that happens," he told Axel Springer CEO Mathias Döpfner in an interview this week. At the top of the list is tending to his farm. "I have a farm that I live some of the time and I really love it," he said."
"Before ChatGPT took off, Altman said he had more time on the farm, where he used to "drive tractors and pick stuff," he said. These aren't just the musings of a tech CEO who needs a break. Altman, more exposed to the latest AI developments than most, says that the day when machines become smarter than humans is fast approaching. In some sectors, he said, it's already here."
""In the short term, AI will destroy a lot of jobs. In the long term, like every other technological revolution, I assume we will figure out completely new things to do," he said. Those jobs, he said, are likely going to revolve around helping others. What makes humans unique isn't our "intellectual capacity," he said - it's the way we care for one another. "Humans, human society, we have such main character energy, we don't really care that the machines are smarter than us," he said. "They already are.""
Sam Altman plans to become a farmer and spends part of his time on a farm where he previously drove tractors and picked produce. He owns multimillion-dollar residences in San Francisco and Napa and a $43 million estate on the Big Island of Hawaii. He believes AI already surpasses humans in some sectors and will eventually be capable of outperforming human CEOs. He expects AI to eliminate many jobs in the short term but anticipates new types of work will emerge, likely focused on helping others. He emphasizes human uniqueness lies in care and social connection, not just intellect.
